Returning from Winter Break...

Wow! What a return we've had! A 2-hr. delay and a snow/cold day this week. Kindergartners did a quick revisit of the classroom rules and procedures along with getting new tables to sit at. Children also colored a coffee filter with the COOL colors, painted water over the top and let it dry to eventually make a snowflake. I plan on having children cut the coffee filters into snowflakes in the next couple of weeks. After they finished their coffee filter art, they practiced their cutting skills and cut out a paper snowflake (I had 4 options they could choose from). So, not a whole lot going on this week due to the crazy schedule, but next week will be back to normal (hopefully) and we will start a new project.


2nd grade artists also got new tables to sit at and finished up art from before break. They were working on creating birch trees with a cardinal bird. We discussed how to create trees and branches from cutting paper and then drawing a cardinal bird. Artists used liquid water colors, Sharpie, pencil, glue and scissors for this project.
